“The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But under the name of ‘liberalism’ they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until one day America will be a Socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.”

Socialist Party presidential candidate Norman Thomas

How the mighty have fallen!

This is the natural end result of unchecked, crazed environmentalism.....

Every adult should be forced to use a 'carbon ration card' when they pay for petrol, airline tickets or household energy, MPs say.

The influential Environmental Audit Committee says a personal carbon trading scheme is the best and fairest way of cutting Britain's CO2 emissions without penalising the poor.

Under the scheme, everyone would be given an annual carbon allowance to use when buying oil, gas, electricity and flights.

Anyone who exceeds their entitlement would have to buy top-up credits from individuals who haven't used up their allowance. The amount paid would be driven by market forces and the deal done through a specialist company.

Under this authoritarian regime-like society, the environmental authorities have the power to determine the correctness of virtually all our activities. It's really funny when you think about it. These insane Brits are crippling their own economy and creating a virtual environmental dictatorship over a menace that exists only in their own demented imaginations. Look at what Great Britain once was, a force on the world stage. Now, through political correctness, reduced to a laughable, pathetic husk of a nation on the brink of utter disaster.

This is the irritatingly smug face of the hysterical enviro-bureaucracy in the UK.....Al Gore would install someone just like him to oversee and approve the daily activities of Americans.
